Berlin Hotel
Hotels in Berlin
Please note that guests of the hotel who have travelled to Berlin for tourist or personal purposes and have reserved numbers after January 2014 are subject to an additional municipal tax of 5 per cent of the total cost of living upon arrival in the hotel.
Upon request, guests may provide evidence from the employer that staying in the hotel is necessary for business purposes. If the guest fails to provide information on the purpose of the travel or fails to prove that the travel has a business purpose, the tax will be automatically added to the total cost of residence. However, for four months, guests have been able to seek tax reimbursement from the Hellersdorf-Marzahn financial office. An application for tax reimbursement is made subject to evidence of the business purpose of the travel, as well as an account from the hotel or other document supporting the amount of the tax paid (see also para. 7.3, " Visitors ' certificates for presentation to the financial authority " ).
